with ability of mail and ballots biden's supporters meanwhile have been celebrating what they believe to be the end of the trump era. as are the scenes of jubilation biden supporters in new york and other u.s. cities began dancing in the streets as election results on friday turned increasingly in favor of their candidate. but also in several cities. signs of frustration like here in arizona where trump supporters have gathered for days to protest after biden was declared the likely victor also scenes of faith albeit a deeply divided faith. showing many democrats believe in the u.s. election system while many republicans do not. come here to shut the way many to be. my delight in the street and you know there are many people who

really get out of lakewood usually the p.t. romney was bleak and. even there when. you see. this is turning into a legal problem this is a fraud on the american public this isn't the president trump was making claims of illegality even before millions of ballots were counted. thankfully there has yet to be any credible evidence of election fraud. over the course of friday votes for biden flipped the grand prize state of pennsylvania and trump lost his lead bringing supporters of both candidates out on the streets. it's a scam and seeds stay in all their states democratic controlled states like michigan wisconsin pennsylvania they're all called looting with each other to create these fraudulent mail in ballot voting but i think there is so much attention on this election on the counting of the votes on looking out for fraud

that you're going to find their pride more accurate than any election we've had so whether they get a recount or not i'm not concerned as i think you're going to get the same result truck just lost you know suppose that you know if you get the votes it comes down to a few 1000 votes here and there but no one has one person so when one person has a lose and he lost and he's not going to come back. biden says he's confident he will win he's appealing for greater unity once the dust settles they want to know that i will work as hard for those who voted against me as those who voted for me that's the job that's the job it's called the duty of care for all americans we have serious problems are due. to the economy to racial justice and climate change. we don't have any more time to waste partisan warfare. street demonstrations for the most part have been peaceful even when people with strongly opposing views face off meanwhile the world is watching to see if that holds true

once a final result is announced. for more on that i'm now joined in the studio by do you use chief international editor richard walker richard to trump supporters seem desperate have we heard any reaction from the trump campaign itself you know all the time campaign is sticking to its message that they want to challenge in the courts what has been going on in many of the states where they they claim that there are irregularities but they haven't really so far produced any evidence to that extent i think is particularly interesting is look what they're communicating under the radar to trump's kind of most loyal supporters now since covering the now last u.s. election in 2016 i've been on the mailing list for trump support is in the u.s. so i received these e-mails that are going out to his supporters all over the country and overnight in european time from last yesterday to today i counted in

the space of 9 hours 14 e-mails coming through so it's actually kind of spamming people at the moment with this kind of thing we've got a few examples here so here for example subject life we need to keep pushing a fair official election defense fund you know trying to raise money for these legal challenges that they want to push up we bring up the next one here send trump trump trump i mean there's no doubt about who this is coming from. let's keep going is the message this or no sense of kind of standing down if we bring up the next one. now it's time to fight back now what are people spilling onto the streets when they're receiving this kind of e-mail from the campaign and the final one here to have a look at do you believe democrats are trying to steal the election. yes or no like encouraging people to click through on that to kind of you know kind of whip people up into this mindset that there is that there are irregularities going on so from

this kind of positioning it's a long step of we've kind of think forward to it a point where victory may be out of trump's reach for sure how does he climb down from this is definitely a few steps from this to a possible concessions and clearly a dynamic situation can't see to can't wait to see how this is all resolved and it's clear at this point that this election is going to be won or lost by a very small margin in a few states give us a sense of how close this election has actually been overall yeah i mean of course the reason we're still sitting here discussing this is that these states close and some of them could be down to you know a percentage point or less but if you look at the overall picture of the national popular vote there is definitely a bigger gap sort of joe biden according to the latest numbers is more than $4000000.00 votes ahead and if that holds to the end of the count then that would be a difference of roughly 3 percentage points which is well short of the landslide that they were looking for but that's not

a particularly close margin of victory got it richard walker chief international editor for d.o.b. really appreciate your time richard. let's take a look now at some other stories making news around the world at this hour ethiopia's prime minister says his air force has bombed arms depots and destroyed military hardware belonging to his former coalition allies in the to gray region tensions rose in september when held an election against the prime minister's will experts fear the latest escalation could trigger a civil war. almost 200 people are dead or missing after hurricane swept across central america the storm have the biggest impact in guatemala where the army is still rescuing people stranded by floodwaters and landslides at a has now been downgraded but forecasters expect it to regain strength as it crosses the caribbean this weekend. a pilot scheme in liverpool aims to mass

unreported asymptomatic cases is one of their biggest challenges. found this in about 3 out of every 4 cases it happens because many patients had no symptoms or couldn't be tested at all because the capacity wasn't available. the study suggests at least 4 times as many people were infected in munich in the spring as officially reported medical students took blood samples from march to june in iran 3000 households despite the high number of cases researchers say germany is far from reaching herd immunity the scientists also found that the mortality rate in connection with covert $900.00 is many times higher than with the flu. and. this is relevant because on the one hand they've looked at patients over a relatively long period of time so we're talking about a 3 month period carried out in a large german city while other studies have been conducted in so-called hot spots

. and another result of the munich study shows germany's 1st lockdown in spring with all its contact restrictions had a clear impact and sank the rate of infection. in the german champions behind munich travel to dortmund on saturday to play their rivals in a game known as the classic once again though the match will be played in an empty stadium because of those record coronavirus number. dortmund germany's self-proclaimed football capital is in lockdown on saturday it hosts germany's biggest game the so-called classic or the you wouldn't know that from looking around. you don't already be feeling the excitement and that's not the case anymore even at 12 o'clock on a saturday even a game against byron is like any other day that was unthinkable 6 months ago the

this week on world stories. partying in spain despite coronavirus. planting trees to save forests in russia. but we begin in belgium like almost everywhere else in europe the number of covert 19 infections and seriously ill patients is rising hospitals are struggling to keep up. this used to

be the recovery room for patients who've had surgery now it serves as a makeshift intensive care unit for covert bentine patients on life support hospitals in the belgian province of lea is are now the epicenter of europe's 2nd wave and struggling to keep up we are not able to admit one new patient any more so if a patient comes in the emergency room with a 3rd the we have to transfer him to another or be done in belgium until the flemish both of benjamin will be ortho 4th devo tells us his team is not only short of beds but also personnel for one in 5 nurses in the region have tested positive for the virus themselves but the pressure is so high that those who don't have symptoms continue to work under strict safety precautions and the actual number of infections is likely to be higher than the official figures across town at least as university hospital testing is ongoing. i can't smell or taste any more

and i have a headache. medics here can conduct 280 tests every day but these tests are strictly for those who have a doctor's prescription family members friends or coworkers who have been in close contact with them but don't show any symptoms cannot get a test. as a moment we have so many positive cases the problem is there are far too many contact persons given the huge number of people who have symptoms we'd be unable to test them as well as all the people they've been in contact with at least not with the amount of tests we have currently if we had more tests we probably could back in the covert ward dr duvall fears the lax handling of the crisis in summer will put him and his colleagues in a very difficult position very soon. when you have only one vet and 10 people out of a thing for the same bits you have to choose between the team that which one you were after. no doctor with want to do that's one thing it's like you know we are not

doctors who do that kind of thing we all ducked off to treat patients not the truth which patient treating germany has started to take patients from belgian hospitals with infections expected to continue to rise here in the coming weeks medical staff already at their limit will need all the help they can get. to combat the increasing number of corona virus infections in spain a nightly curfew has been put in place but parties are still being held in private apartments even though they're not allowed. back every week and madrid police have been knocking on hundreds of doors to shut down illegal parties madrid allows meetings of up to 6 people who are not related but police have broken up parties of more than 200 joaquin as a business student in madrid he only wants to speak briefly and anonymously as he

regularly goes to such parties he himself recently helped organize one. we just rented a place so we could drink and smoke inside just a few visitors even wore masks but that didn't last long honestly young people's biggest fear is having to pay a fine that's why those places need to be well insulated so the neighbors and the police want to take anything that. bush want to start off with. who are keen and his friends seem unfazed by the statistics the 3rd of spaniards become infected with the coronavirus at private parties 200 illegal parties were broken up in madrid last week alone police chief javier fine and this is especially troubled by the new business model being developed. bars that are actually supposed to be closed certainly do take money in exchange for letting people in there's a clear economic incentive for it apart from that we have discovered private homes

that were charging entrance fees right at the front door this isn't just about a few friends meeting up psychiatry's diego figueroa is calling for more empathy with a young people even if you support strictly abiding by the hygiene measures experts are starting to acknowledge the consequences of such drastic restrictions on young people socialites right now we have finding that young people's mental health problems have increased dramatically as a result of the springs to lock down as suicide safe increased by $22.00 per cent so far and attempted suicides have even increased by 35 percent on top of that there's been a major increase in the consumption of alcohol and psychoactive drugs young spaniards are now confronted with new rules all bars in madrid must close at 11 pm starting this week and curfew begins at midnight. even so business student

cope on its own so the volunteers decided to form their own organisation it's called the city the organization has launched a program called adopt a street to help residents feel more connected to their community in the days of apartheid only white people were allowed to do this year later it became a melting pot with people from various ethnicities and cultural backgrounds but as the population and unemployment grew problems started to emerge became known for violence criminality and prostitution their trip you taishan is beginning to change actually in parks and people enjoying the district's improved image. they live here is their environment so it's it's bringing their pride to their own environment you know you don't have to just eat something out of a plastic or drink something out of a bottle and throw it on the ground so we starting to get there it's change of

behavior in the people and the community that lives here and then eventually once a street on the air or a park is cleared and the crime elements they move out. there's a killer must see cause says crying particularly robberies needs to be addressed he takes us to the block of flats where you works as a caretaker he says well the situation has improved dramatically in recent years the coronavirus pandemic is threatening to roll back those improvements the best that being in this credit is the increase in cleaning up because people almost the contents definition then 20 so no they're still just looking to get their foot in the set of the house they're struggling to get with and so they're taking consent for the truths. so i'm saying that the cotton is not good for us i'm going to quote end up at the finish and then that's it and it was if you like i say if you. like it i'm a sicko wants to do what you can to make the locals

a little bit happier next weekend and make the neighborhood a little more pleasant even if you can solve all the areas problems themselves many of those up very happy to live here in broken. hill. droughts and pests are destroying forests in russia. activist marianna much ianto who has dedicated her life to conservation says there's only one solution planting more trees. what looks like random bunches of greenery are in fact pine tree saplings thousands of them already for planting marianna explains how it's done. 20 simple you place the sampling in the hole then fill that with earth and check that the settlings firmly that it is like looking at the. check

once more that it can't be pulled out yet of a great or that's what. 8000 saplings are due to be planted today here on the outskirts of moscow marianna munch ya know ask for help online and an army of volunteers has responded she regularly invites members of the public to help her. rushes farce of taking quite a beating in recent years huge areas have been devastated by wildfires pests like bark beetles pose a further challenge russia has more forest than any other country trees cover nearly half of this vast land. is yari times in there is high. doing it isn't still going to town there were terrible wildfires back then throughout the whole of russia but it's you know i saw a picture of huge wellestablished trees being blown across the fields by the when they were breaking off like matchsticks teach people in the south marianna studied

economics and initially worked in finance but she quit her job to devote all her attention to reforestation to mining to mr vandeleur can change the world one small step at a time and people will pull together for a good cause. just sitting it's. 7 years ago marianna monte on a move to moscow to build up her own environmental organization but she's still not a lover of the city her childhood in the countryside very much shaped to she is. with it but i love nature i love the forest as a child i always spend the summers with my grandmother in the village and all the good that's her house right next to the forest we would go out several times a week picking berries or mushroom. back to the forest on the outskirts of moscow it's time for lunch in the past 10 years marianna munteanu and her helpers have

planted more than a 1000000 trees that's the equivalent of around 1300 soccer fields a large number of volunteers of all ages have helped to make it possible. last year she was selected by the united nations for the young champion of the earth award. right nearby she shows us some other young trees from her project that have had a chance to get established. well you might this is true you know supplanted just 7 years ago and as you can see it's already bigger than me and i wish him enough soon this area should once again be a strong healthy forest hopefully strong enough to withstand all the challenges of the future.
